| I took some time off just to see the world
|
| I live hoppin' in my Jordan 4's
|
| The box logo T
|
| Bermuda shorts, clean resorts, full of tan women
|
| Cooler feel, cold bottles in them
|
| Stretched out like the 7th indent
|
| My 7th heaven is some miles away
|
| But I’ll just sit here, American dream in this beach here today
|
| Leave my troubles in the past years and try and stay humble
|
| When the clouds clear cause nobody was around here
|
| When everybody doubted yea
|
| Now it’s open letters and gift mail
|
| Kind words from strangers that don’t sit well
|
| And every chick I meet is out to get mel I feel
|
| Safe on this island, all my thoughts are locked away
|
| Safe on this island, a treasure full of diamonds
|
| Gems for the rhymin', I drop them every now and then
|
| Black and Mild, smoke through the wind
|
| Ashes on the pages of my journal made from snake skin
|
| Staring in the ocean where the greats swim
|
| I’m thinking 'bout jumping in
|
| Came a long way from jumping tens
|
| Switches on the Impala, tires so skinny I was bouncing on rims
|
| (Popping my color)
|
| Listening to a pimp, UGK ish
|
| I was underground then and still underground now
|
| Difference is I’m under palm trees, not trying to be found
|
| Close my eyes and breathe (just breathe)
|
| And suddenly, I can feel a breeze (feel a breeze)
|
| Let yourself float away cause you spent every day strugglin'
|
| I know that my escape is an island, just an island away
|
| They said don’t let this money ever change me
|
| Or let MMG play me
|
| Or none of these music niggas downgrade me
|
| They say in the land of many I’m king
|
| A savior to the whole dream
|
| The same player who kept his goal clean
|
| Khaki starch and his shirt sting
|
| Shoot strings held my pants up
|
| Now I’m hoopla dancing with my thumbs up
|
| Scuba diving in my sun trups
|
| Scrooge McDuck with these big bucks
|
| Green fingers from this paper countin'
|
| Made enough last year to put my mama next to mountains
|
| But who’s counting, drowning
|
| Or should I say basting in his glory
|
| Poor boy, the wealthy man is Hawal in my story
|
| When it’s all said and done, in this life I had fun and did what I love
|
| Had no regrets, held no grudge
|
| White doves and seagulls remind me of my travels
|
| Spread my wings and fly away
|
| Don’t cry if I should die today
|
| I left my mark every mile I stay
|
| Collect my thoughts and paddle away
|
| You can collect my thoughts and paddle away
|
| Close my eyes and breathe (just breathe)
|
| And suddenly, I can feel a breeze (feel a breeze)
|
| Let yourself float away cause you spent every day strugglin'
|
| I know that my escape is an island, just an island away
|
| I was underground then and still underground now
|
| Difference is I ain’t tryna be found
|
| I ain’t tryna be found
|
| I was underground then and still underground now
|
| Difference is I ain’t tryna be found |
